MM is a transparent masque for efficient yet innocuous cleaning & visible refinement of pores & impurities resulting in immediate & maintainable visible reduction in both the number & the size of pores. (Note: It is not possible to modify the genetically-determined number or size of pores as apparent in optimal skin condition. However pores do become more apparent in number & size with ageing & environmental exposure. MM works to restore the appearance of pores to an ideal state within individual genetic limits.) In line with yešti's commitment to traditional approaches to science MM uses a highly-densified sap from Greek mastic trees. It is a dense gum that binds to congestion like gum would but it doesn't bind to oil or water just like gum wouldn't. It purifies & shrinks the look of pores without drying. The sap is a powerful anti-bacterial & anti-fungal. It's definitely Greek in every way but borrowed by Middle Eastern medicine & called Arabic Gum which should not be confused with the very common substance known as Gum Arabic. The sap in MM is sustainably sourced & is purified in a very precise bio-technology lab with extremely high purity. yešti
- Ahead is not further than behind. True learning is a form of love — it is humble. It respects that to look forward it must look backward. The few observers of NIOD's childhood know that NIOD isn't a br&. It is a force & it has a soul. While NIOD's genetics are committed to science its soul is ultimately rooted in learning. Perhaps the only flaw of modern science is that it grows proud & loses respect for our deserving past — but learning stays humble & looks back. NIOD's journey will offer respect to our past with a series of formulations informally called yešti. NIOD's caretakers live with exhausting standards in science. The journey of NIOD's yešti formulations is not one of a lower standard — it is instead one that allows our collective past an overdue chance to speak.
